I've been saying for a while that in the future, turning books into movies and shows would be as easy as a prompt. Well, here's version 1 (far from easy, but a first step).
LOVE THIS! Authors First is a book-to-screen studio and distribution platform bringing beloved books to life with the author in the directors chair…and now they’re live. They give authors the creative control to bring stories to screen that may never have been possible before, while giving fans a true “watch the book” experience.

Got this from a friend reading Lunar Fail.
For the first time, this made me doubt a little that core human creativity is completely safe. We'll have to be uber creative in the new AI era.
Anthropic really figured out something here....

I asked @claudeai Opus 5.5 to make an animated video about a robot who realises he's stuck in an AI-generated world.
I wanted to really push it: 12 worlds, 12 styles, from 8-bit to claymation to pencil sketch, you can really see how well this model has imagined all worlds.
This is the best animated video you will see today made by Opus 5.5, I promise.
I don't support Super Intelligence (SI) to replace AI - if it does catch up I will have to go back and alter the term in my stories.
My novels correctly predicted that the AI conversation would become a political struggle for power. See the “Vote Human” campaign and the OASIS agency’s backstory.

In my NEON GODs novels I imagined a world where the digital gods (quantum-core AIs) keep all other AIs in check. A fully independent agency called OASIS has the ability to pull the plug on these superintelligences (no spoilers). I believe this is where we are heading.

Progress is still on track with my predictions.
Read The Goddess Bait for more.

I'm working on Days of Gaia, book 3 of the NEON GODS trilogy. There's a scene involving a horse pulling a wagon*. I know nothing of the terminology or techniques involved (who does in 2026?) -- an example of AI research to the rescue! (step 1: learn the difference between carriage and wagon).

* Its not what you think
Okay... so I love AI and believe in a better future thanks to it. But, damn, she looks exactly like the rogue-AI Gaia in my NEON GODS novels.
🤖 Made with AI
These are getting real good.
This is the most realistic AI movie ever made.
Our 20-minute drama, ONEIRIC, is live and open-sourced for the $1,000,000 Higgsfield Global Film Festival.
And yes, it’s 100% AI.
Made on Cinema Studio 4.
In a few years you'll be able to feed the Odyssey to an AI, prompt your own preferences on casting and plot and get a Nolan quality film.
